Star Citizen is an in-development space combat simulator which is developed by Cloud Imperium. The game was first announced back in 2012 and the final version of the game isn’t released yet even after more than ten years. The game received a lot of backlashes from critics and the gaming community due to the long production and no clear final release date. Developers have been releasing modules of the original game since 2013 but they weren’t enough to quench the thirst of gamers who were looking for a once-in-a-lifetime space adventure.
Till now, developers have published four different modules of this long-awaited first-person shooter game and each module features different mechanics. Among these modules, the persistent universe module is the best as it features everything from the first three modules along with some new updates. If you want to try space ships in the game, the hanger module is available for you. Purchase a ship and modify it according to your taste with this module. Become an arena commander and fly your space shuttles. Engage in combat with other players in the star marine module. In the final persistent universe module, you can create a fully customizable character and accomplish everything from the above-mentioned modules.
Scorpius space ship
Scorpius is a small spaceship developed by Roberts Space Industries for two space voyagers. For difficult times such as combat situations, developers installed a remote turret on its rails that you can easily move to the top or the bottom position according to your needs. The wings are installed in an x shape and can be retracted backward to transport it on other ships as well as to land it in tight spots. It also features two missile rack hardpoints along with four additional hardpoints for guns. In terms of flying, the ship is similar to the hurricane class ships but its speed is low. It is pretty tough and the rail turret makes it a unique ship in Star Citizen. The ship was first premiered at the Invictus launch week while it was released in the Alpha 3.17.1 version of Star Citizen. Below are more details about the Scorpius ship such as specifications, armament, features, available paints, and general information. You need Star Citizen Auec to buy the Scorpius ship when it will release so you have to start collecting it from today or you can buy it from a third party with real-life money to avoid all that grinding and spending Auec on other items for now.
